^I've read several profiles of people who seemed normal and then went down the QAnon rabbit hole. I've finally accepted that I will never understand it. Maybe experts can understand it and try to help other people from ending up the same way. As for those who have fallen for it and committed awful crimes because of it, they reap what they've sown.
On a different note, If someone had told me 5 years ago that this is what would become of Ted Cruz I never would have believed it. Sure, he was never a good guy, but to become a traitor for Trump after their history is just bizarre.
